The '70's are back!

  Old is gold. Fashion trends from the 1970's are back for summer 2011. Don't be scared and imagine polyester suits from Saturday Night Fever or huge bell bottoms your parents might have owned. Imagine Bianca Jagger at Studio 54 in the 21st century...

  • Jumpsuits and rompers (shorter version of jumpsuits) are making a comeback but this time, they are more streamlined and in more breezier fabrics. You can pair them with a belt and clogs, another trend making a comeback

  • High-waisted jeans paired with fitted blouses can be done in a modern context 

  •  Maxi dresses are also in this summer. They are great to wear over the summer not only because they are loosely fitted but allow but easy movement. There are daytime versions as well as glam night ones. Wear with exotic wooden, tribal-patterned or colorful bangles to add a boho vibe.

  • If you don't want to overtly display the '70's trend, use accessories to show that you're on board the trend. Colorblocking can be worn through clothes as well as shoes. Wear shoes that are colorblocked or clogs. Clogs are revamped for 2011.
